Hi all,

I'm a fresh graduate. Just got an offer from Plexus Penang as a software Engineer.

May I know about the career prospective in plexus? Is that a good place/platform for a fresh to learn?

The offer I received as below:

4.1K Per Month. (Is good for fresh, but that figure come out because of my educational qualification is quite high)
usually one month bonus for an engineer + one more month depend on performance. I got an offer from other OEM company as well which is higher than what Plexus offer me, but I prefer the job scope offer by plexus. Plus, working in OEM, the stuff we learn can be quite focus and narrow, is that true??

Do they offer any RSU to the employee??

As a fresh, money is not the main factor i should consider for now, but i wish to go in a place with a great opportunity to learn.

So all the seniors here, please advise. I get ready to take the flames.

Thank alot.

I believed I'm not at the right position to talk about specialist. I can only talk about interests as a fresh graduate.

I interested in Digital Design/Embedded System

Then, u should give a try. I think Plexus's job is quite challenging if u really interested in these area.

Software Engineer is more towards application development.

While Digital Design/Embedded System are totally different kind of story.

Hi,

For some embedded design company, they call the firmware engineer as software engineer. Hence, our friend need to ask clearly about job scope. But i believe that it should be firmware engineer since our friend quite interesting regarding that job offered.

Agree. I went for 3 interviews. 4 of the managers there seem very kind and friendly. So I assume that the enviroment there will be good and I will get a good training there.

Riverside.
